You looked me in my eyes and told me you didn’t love me.

It caught me by surprise;

But I still tried.

For days on end I tried to get you back.

With every detail of your face engraved in my memory, I wrote you through stories.

Trace your body in scrapbooks to feel the pain.

You once told me I had no heart.

Then I desperately tried to explain my past to you;

But you shun me out.

You pushed my back up against a wall;

And gave me up like a terrible one night stand.

For the longest I ignored the pain.

I pretended to be okay.

But the truth is;

It all hurts like hell.
